LE SSERAFIM's single "Made My Night" was released in Japan on Friday, October 9, 2026, and finished that day at No. 1 on Oricon's Daily Single Ranking . The result arrived while the group was between the end of its North American tour and the start of its European tour.
Did LE SSERAFIM's "Made My Night" top Oricon's daily chart?
Yes. On October 9, 2026, its Japanese release day, "Made My Night" ranked No. 1 on Oricon's Daily Single Ranking . Oricon published that chart on October 10. The group's agency, Source Music, announced the result on Sunday, October 11 . The Korea Times, Star News and Cineplay all reported it, based on Source Music's statement .
Quick Answer: Yes. LE SSERAFIM's "Made My Night" was No. 1 on Oricon's Daily Single Ranking on October 9, 2026, the day it came out in Japan. Source Music announced the result on October 11. According to the Korea Times, it is the group's second Korean single in a row to top the Oricon chart, after "SPAGHETTI."
According to the Korea Times, "Made My Night" is the "five-member group's" second Korean single in a row to reach No. 1 on the Oricon chart. The first was "SPAGHETTI," which the paper says came out in 2025 . Star News also reports that "SPAGHETTI" topped the same Japanese chart .
This result has a narrow scope:
- Chart: Oricon's Daily Single Ranking, a physical singles chart, for one day (October 9).
- Not yet reported: None of the sources checked had published a weekly Oricon ranking or a Japanese sales figure for the single.
- Different chart: Separately, Wikipedia lists the song at No. 26 on Oricon's Japan Digital Singles chart . That chart is not the same as the daily single ranking.
What is "Made My Night" and who is behind it?
"Made My Night" is LE SSERAFIM's second Korean single album. It is a short pop dance track, and Source Music released it in Korea on September 11, 2026, about four weeks before its Japanese release . According to The Korea Times, the music video for the title track came out at midnight. The full single followed at 1 p.m. the same day .
The Korea Times describes the release as having two tracks: the title song "Made My Night" and the B-side "AEIOU" . The same paper calls the title song a pop dance track about the excitement of a night spent with someone special. Source Music, the group's agency, explains the concept in its own words:
"A special night brought to life through the members' perfect chemistry," — Source Music, describing the single album (source: Cineplay)
Here are the credits and specs listed on Wikipedia :
- Length: 2:06
- Labels: Source Music and Geffen Records
- Songwriters: Riley McDonough, Connor McDonough, Ryan Daly, Castle, Mae Muller, Justin Tranter and Brandon Colbein
- Producers: Riley McDonough, Connor McDonough and Ryan Daly
The single features all five members: Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha and Hong Eunchae, according to Korea Daily . The Korea Times also calls LE SSERAFIM a "five-member" group.
The music video was made in collaboration with Blizzard Entertainment's game Overwatch . The group has worked with the game before, but the sources disagree on how many times. The Korea Times and Wikipedia give different counts, so this article does not state a number.
How has the single performed on other charts?
"Made My Night" placed on several charts before its Japanese release. In Korea, it sold about 200,000 copies on its first day and was No. 1 on Hanteo Chart's daily album chart for September 11, according to The Korea Times . Hanteo Chart is a Korean service that tracks album sales. The single also appeared on charts in the US, Taiwan and New Zealand.
Outside Korea, the song was No. 14 on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart dated September 26. It has also stayed on Spotify Korea's Weekly Top Songs chart for four weeks in a row. Both figures come from Star News and The Korea Times . The single's Wikipedia entry lists more peaks: No. 3 on Circle's album chart in South Korea, No. 7 on New Zealand Hot Singles and No. 18 on Billboard's Taiwan chart .
| Chart | Position / figure | Date | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oricon Daily Single Ranking (Japan) | No. 1 | October 9, 2026 | The Korea Times |
| Hanteo daily album chart (Korea) | No. 1, about 200,000 first-day copies | September 11, 2026 | The Korea Times, Star News |
| Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 | No. 14 | Chart dated September 26, 2026 | The Korea Times, Star News |
| Spotify Korea Weekly Top Songs | Four weeks in a row | As of October 2026 | The Korea Times, Star News |
| Circle album chart (Korea) | No. 3 | Peak | Wikipedia |
| New Zealand Hot Singles | No. 7 | Peak | Wikipedia |
| Billboard Taiwan | No. 18 | Peak | Wikipedia |
| Oricon Japan Digital Singles | No. 26 | Peak | Wikipedia |
The table has two Oricon entries, and they measure different things. Oricon's Daily Single Ranking counts physical single sales for a single day. That is the chart where "Made My Night" was No. 1 on its Japanese release day. Oricon's Japan Digital Singles chart counts downloads, and Wikipedia lists the song's peak there as No. 26 . The two numbers don't contradict each other. As of October 11, the sources checked had not reported a weekly Oricon position or a Japanese sales total for the single.
What was LE SSERAFIM doing around the Japan release?
When "Made My Night" came out in Japan, LE SSERAFIM had just finished its North American tour. The final U.S. concert was on Thursday, October 8 (local time), at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey . The Japanese release followed the next day, Friday, October 9. Oricon's daily chart for that day put the single at No. 1 .
According to The Korea Times and Star News, the tour went to nine cities and sold out in eight of them . The two outlets list these sold-out cities:
- Los Angeles
- San Jose
- Phoenix
- Fort Worth
- Orlando
- Chicago
- Washington, D.C.
- Newark
The sources checked do not name the ninth city, which was the one that did not sell out. Cineplay also reports that the U.S. run ended in Newark .
Read these dates as a timeline only. None of the sources say the U.S. shows affected the Oricon result, and Source Music's announcement presents the chart news and the tour as two separate pieces of news. For fans, it means the group went from a U.S. tour to a Japanese release to a European tour in about a week.
What should fans watch next: London on Oct. 16?
LE SSERAFIM's next stop is London, where the group's first European tour starts on Friday, October 16, 2026 . Star News says the show will take place at The O2 arena . Cineplay also reports London as the opening city (source: Cineplay, 2026-10).
The sources we checked don't cover ticket availability, door times, or the rest of the European dates. If you're going to the show, check Source Music's official channels and The O2's own listings for the latest ticket status and entry rules. Don't rely on resale posts or reposted schedules.
Here's what is still pending on the charts:
- Oricon weekly ranking: none of the sources we checked had published it when this was written. Only the daily No. 1 for October 9 is confirmed .
- Japanese sales figures: no first-week number for Japan had been reported. The roughly 200,000 first-day copies are Hanteo's figure for Korea, not Japan .
So far, two things are confirmed: a daily Oricon No. 1 on the day "Made My Night" came out in Japan, and a London opening at The O2 on October 16. Check Oricon's weekly chart and Source Music's announcements this week before you count any further results.
